Economists say that from 2003 to 2008, as investment contributed an average 42-plus percent of GDP, consumption’s share was not more than 38 percent, with the rest of the economy being driven by exports. In contrast, in most developed economies, the share of consumption is usually about 70 percent, if not more.
